To give a seminar follow these rules.
1. Dont start making the slides until the day before. If you start earlier make sure you leave the difficult ones until the last day.
2. Never print anything out until the night before you need it.
3. When you do print something out make sure a) you have no blank tranparent slides, and b) you dont know where to get any blank transparent slides.
4. It is essential that the transparent slides that you eventually find are the wrong kind for your printer/photocopier.
5. If you are going to make a powerpoint presentation, save your presentation in as many formats as you can. It will not matter it will still be the wrong one.
6. Hide all the pointers in the lecture theatre, to use up some minutes and make you nervous.
7. Fiddle with all the light switches on the podium. Then someone helpful in the audience will fiddle with all the light switches on the wall near the door, before they creep up in front of you and fiddle with all the light switches on the podium again.
8. Shuffle your slides thoroughly.
9. Try as many orientations of your slides as you can, before settling on upside down and back to front.
If you observe these simple rules your seminar will conform to the internationally accepted standard that we have all come to expect.
